The Intelligence Department of Hindavi Swarajya- The third eye of Chhatrapati🛡️⚡
Here is a Letter Of Shivaji Maharaj to Mughal Officer! From This We can Imagine how Strong the Intelligence Department of Swarajya Was! Sitting In Raigad Ch. Shivaji Raje telling the Officer about what Mughal Sainiks are Writing to Aurangzeb in Delhi!!
Shivbharat has a verse which says Shivaji Maharaj Had his Spy Vison everywhere ! Which States the Importance of Intelligence department of Swarajya!
Shivdigvinjay Bakhar Says Shivaji Maharajs Spies used to dress up as a Begger and go to the Army of Afzalkhan ! And Used to Tell all the Thoughts of Khan To Maharaj!
Sabhasad Bakhar and Saptaprakar- anatmak Charitra Mentions Baharji Naik As a trusted Man of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Who Used to give Information about the whereabouts of praja and enemy To him!
Sabhasad Bakhar Also Mentions that When Marathas Looted Jalna and defeated Khan Commander an Unexpected Attack from Mughals Came and Bahirji Naik Saflely exported Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and The Loot To a Safe secret hideout. Shivaji Maharaj Was very Greatfull to Bahirji!
Bahirji Naik also Told Maharaj about Each and Every corner of Surat City and presented a Map Of the city before Marathas looted it! Sabhasad Bakhar:
Foreign Biographers like Abe Careey writes that Shivaji Maharaj Himself dressed as a Fakir and examined the whole Surat City Before going to loot it! Indian Bheemsen Saxena also Writes before Attacking Shahistakhan Raje New each and every corner of the Mahal and Army of Khan!
Here is an Excellent Letter of Shivaji Maharaj written to Baji Jedhe waring him that Mughals are going to attack his Village and Telling him to Escort all the civilians to a Safe Place!He also says dont waste a sec or the sin of Sufferings of people will be on us!
Not Just Intel but how people act on receiving Intel is also Very Important! For Example Shivaji Maharaj Wrote a Letter to Vyakonji Raje and Literally Told him what Bahlot Khan would Write to him in a Letter. He predicted the moves and told Vyankoji To Win Jinji!
But Vyankoji Didn't do anything! (Latter Maharaj won Jinji) Counter to this see the letter written to Baji Jedhe . Raje Immediately Acted after receiving the intel and told Jedhe to evacuate the village and escort them to a safe place!
He writes dont waste a sec or the sin of peoples suffering will be on Us! This not only tells about the Strength of Intel but also the Love Raje had for his people!
Abe Also writes that Shivaji Maharaj used to Pay a Lot to his spies! This also gives us the inference that Intel Department was one of the most important ministry in Swarajya. Only because of it we would get news of Delhi Sitting in Raigad!!
There is no detail information available about the Intel Department of Swarajya like the Places of Camps or the people who were in Charge ! But from some letters and Bakhars we can infer about it and Imagine How Strong it was!
In fact there is very very little information about Bahirji Naik even when he was the head of the spy department and Intelligence Minister of Swarajya !! He was even called Maharaj's Third Eye! for his heroics in collecting very accurate information about the enemy's movements.
The lack of information about the the great intelligence department of Maharaj and his spies is actually a Victory For the Intelligence Department Of Hindavi Swarajya in true sense!!
